Almost Done!!

Would you believe it's been almost 5 years since I started my chemo treatments?  The study I participated in started March 18, 2009. I had my second to the last appointment at the cancer center and the nurse who supervised my study was there and confirmed.  Unbelievable... I remember sitting there listening to the oncologist tell me that we had to change the course of treatment to chemotherapy rather than radiation due to the lymph node involvement. I couldn't see that far ahead and didn't think 5 years would ever come.

So happy to say that next month is my last one!!! Woo-hoo!!! I will be officially in remission for breast cancer then.... hopefully the endocrinologist can figure out what to do about the thyroid.... 

I am blessed and so grateful for all the love and support the my husband, family and friends have given. Through all the pain, the numerous surgeries, limited energy levels, depression, lots of blood tests, MRIs, MRVs, MRAs, etc, etc... you have stuck by me and held my hand and encouraged me to hold on. God has been faithful in every aspect of this journey. He sent people my way who pushed me the right way :-)

Thank you for the light at the end of this tunnel. I am so fortunate for the wonderful care I have been receiving... Counting the days until next month :-)
